you know you're going well when OT hits and you still get the under. congrats
Last night we had one solid gold under, which finished regulation covering by 21.5 points -- only to run into OT. The Detroit game finished 89-89, but OT managed just 15 points, keeping the under fortunately (and deservedly) intact.
The Boston under was close the whole way, bouncing back and forth between on pace to win and lose, though never too far in either direction.
It squeaked by when the total finished at 215, though those who bet close to game time got a worse line than that (it closed at 213.5 on most books).
However, most of the way you were getting 217 or 216.5 since I posted it, so if you bet it, you probably won.
The 2-0 day takes me to 133-93-3 overall, putting me 40 games over .500 for the first time this season.
More interestingly, it leaves me at 22-8-1 in the past 9 days, with many of those 22 covering easily.
Washington +5 -105 (may want to drop some on moneyline +180)
Perhaps more shortly
Golden State under 228 (227.5 ok)
New York under 211
Does this forum have text-message-alerts for when you post your bets?
Kings ML FTW
Be glad you missed my picks yesterday.
They went 0-3.
Early NBA (more later probably):
Atlanta +7 (starting 30 min)
Utah +8 (starting 70 min)
Here's something you rarely see from me: A road favorite.
Houston -4.5
San Antonio under 200
Dallas +2 -115 (or +105 or better moneyline)
That's it. 5 picks.
Hopefully goes better than yesterday.
Atlanta game really got screwed. Was up 95-90 late, and then 110-109.
12-0 run for Charlotte in the final 2:59 made the final 121-110, and my +7 didn't cover.
The others:
Utah: Won outright
Houston: Lost outright, despite coming back from 20 down
San Antonio under: Will win
Dallas: Will lose
2-3 puts me at 136-99-3 for the year.
Rough last two days, going 2-6 combined after a 22-8-1 run.
Here's my one pick so far:
Detroit +3.5 (or moneyline +145 or better)
Game starts in about 45 min.
More later.
Detroit sucks.
One more for tonight:
Minnesota under 216
Someone came to me recently and said, "Todd, no wonder you're shitting the bed over the last few days with the NBA. Your talent lies with NBA unders, not with sides. Look at the last 2 days. You're 2-0 with unders, and 1-4 with sides."
Point taken.
Here you go:
Lakers under 217
OKC under 214 -105
NOTE: I predict that OKC under will go up to 214.5 or 215 before game time. So you may want to wait on placing this one. Game starts 3:05pm PST.
so far in this season you have an amazingly good record by picking sides and totals. Sometime you have to lose in order to win. So maybe by betting the sides you bet less totals. Now if you specifically seek out totals you may over pick games....selecting more totals in order to make up for the sides you dont bet. Be careful. Betting is a fragile thing when u are on an overall good streak. Streaks are bound to come to an end anyway....so do what you think is best. Advice on how to change your betting pattern is a dime a dozen.
LOL -- if I'm sitting 30-some games over .500 and somebody gives me advice on what I should do -- believe me, that person not only isn't getting any more plays. I'm going to have to make sure nobody overheard him giving the advice because I don't want his legs broken due to a lack of respect. Actually, since what I do is 90% college football, I'm never 30 games over .500 in a season (well, twice in 40 years) -- to put things in perspective
Now I can see advice like, "Well, it's All-Star time -- maybe back off for a week or two," or "reduce the amounts per game for a stretch of the calendar" or something like that. But in terms of actually suggesting what I should be taking -- if I'm 30-some over .500, I'd quietly advise that maybe that person should branch out into brain surgery and cryptocurrency speculation while he conquers the world.
ICE COLD WARNING: I AM 3-9 IN PAST 12 PICKS
Charlotte +2.5 -105 (+2 ok, but +3 -115 exists on Bovada for certain accounts)
Charlotte under 211.5 (211 ok)
More later.
I think that's going to be it, folks.
Was considering Philly under and Miami side, but passing on both.
Please, please, please never bet against OKC when they're super hot.
Oh, wait
Washington +4.5 -115 (Bovada) -- 3.5 -110 or 4 ok
This is one of those lines which "pops" at the last minute in order to bring disproportionate action back the other way. It was +3 just a short time ago.
Starts in 15-20 min
John Wall is out, btw.
Brooklyn +5.5 (might want to put some on moneyline +200)
Starts 15-20 min
